Below you'll find an introduction to the client,
a summary of the design brief, and contest rules.
About The Client
Since 1991, Global Action Project (G.A.P.) has provided
media arts and leadership training for thousands of
young people living in underserved communities, from
New York to Croatia to Guatemala to the Middle East
and beyond. Their mission is to provide youth with
the knowledge, tools, and relationships they need
to create powerful, thought-provoking media on local
and international issues that concern them, and to
use their media as a catalyst for dialogue and social
change.
About The Project
This will be a two-part project, a poster and T-shirt
design representing Global action Project. This is
a great opportunity to get a really nice set of print
pieces in your portfolio, so we highly recommend participating!
The Poster: Competitors will be given an image of
the Global Action Project logo, a series of images,
and copy to use on the poster. You are not limited
to using the images as they are; you have the option
of doing any treatment you like on the image. The
poster can be a 4-color print process.
The T-Shirt: This will be a two-color design featuring
the Global Action Project logo as shown on the Web
Site. You will be given dimensions of the printable
area of front and back of each T-shirt.
Colors/Fonts: Each T-shirt design should be submitted
in a black and white version and in a color version.
You must use the logo and typefaces used on the Global
Action Web site. Fonts will be provided to you.
